1. The Job Advertisement
The purpose of a job advert is to get as many suitable people as possible to apply for the job.
Could be advertised internally - cheaper, vacancy may be filled quicker, candidate will already work for the company but the promotion will leave another vacancy to fill and no ‘new blood’.
If advertised externally – the company has to decide where to advertise.
The advert should describe the job and the skills required. It may indicate pay and it must explain how the person should apply for the job.

2. Recruitment Advertising
Where the organisation will place the adverts depends on:
The target audience – who you want to see your advert
The size of the labour market – this depends on the nature of the job
The budget – different media cost different amounts. Employing recruitment agencies /consultants also comes at a price! Internal is cheaper than external.
